Finished People of the Earth

This novel, based on the archeology of authors W. Michael Gear and Kathleen O'Neal Gear as well as others, explores the mythology and relationships between native peoples living 5000 years ago in what is now Montana and Wyoming.  I was thoroughly engrossed.  It has taken me longer to read it than most, partially because it is long and somewhat leisurely, but also because I was interrupted by an operation (half thyroid removal--biopsy negative) and an election (worked election day and slept the next.)

I then thought I'd start Chaos and Order by Stephen Donaldson, but it turned out to be the fourth book in the Gap series and I have read only the first.  An exploration of the Internet shows that only the book I've read and the one I tried to start are actually available in paperback.  The entire series is available in a Kindle book, but I'm not into that.  So, I guess I'll start haunting Half Price Books...

The next book in the pile was another in Clark's 2001 series, but I read 2010 in the last pass across that pile, so I went another down to Doomsday World by Carmen Carter, Peter David, Michael Jan Friedman and Robert Greenberger--it is a Star Trek, The Next Generation book.
